Hi guys,
I'm using the bcm43xx built-in kernel driver with the firmware from my
windows driver. It works a treat with Network Manager but I really
want to have this card brought up automatically at startup. Its a
desktop that will only ever connect to the network 'linksys' that uses
wpa-psk encryption if that helps.
Is there a simple, non-interactive way to do this?
Thanks is advance,

Trade NetworkManager for network.
ie:
sudo service NetworkManager stop
sudo service NetworkManagerDispatcher stop
sudo chkconfig NetworkManager off
sudo chkconfig NetworkManagerDispatcher off
sudo chkconfig --level 2345 network on
Run system-config-network and set up the wireless card.
Be sure to check the box in the General tab for automatically start
interface upon boot.
sudo service network start
All fixed up. From now on the wireless card will start up first thing.
ntpd, nfs, and other network services will work on startup now also.
Good luck!
